RNC Offers Addition to Obama Fashion Show

February 7, 2012 RSS Feed Print

The Obama Campaign might be the ones headlining a New York fashion show Tuesday to premiere their line of celebrity-designed clothes for the president's reelection campaign, but Republican National Committee Communications Director Sean Spicer isn't going to let them have all the fun.

Spicer says in honor of the president's recent "flip flop" on his position on Super PACs, Spicer wanted to offer his own design for the president — a pair of thong sandals reading "Super PACs, a threat to democracy (just kidding!)"

"We thought the one item they were missing were some high end designer Obama, Super PAC flip flops," Spicer says. "The sandals are fake, the flip-flop is real." [Read the U.S. News debate: Are Super PACs Harming U.S. Politics?]

The mock sandal design is a poke at the Obama's campaign, who had sworn off Super PACs until recently, when campaign manager Jim Messina sent an E-mail to supporters urging them to donate to Priorities USA, a democratic Super PAC.

The RNC is the biggest bunch of hypocrites out there. Their support of Super-Pacs, lobbyists, big money donors that are undisclosed, Citizens United, and an outside money flowing into local state political battles has never wavered.

The RNC has no ethical compass, and their jabs at an ethical concern and strategy with guidelines used by the DNC of course have no substance. Gingrich's big money casino PAC, Romney's Wall Street, Koch and Mormon backed PAC, Santorum's Christian-right big money PAC - all rely on less than 100 donors to keep their ad dollars rolling in.

The RNC is not doing a flip flop - they are simply forced to play by the rules that exist. If Citizens United was reversed, Obama would still have large $$$ coming in from small donors. He did in 2008. He has proposed and would sign if passed any campaign financing disclosure law.

Just goes to show you that the RNC has no real issues to run on that don't actually point to their own flaws.....

What a mess the Republican primaries have been....what a bunch of RNC clowns.... goofballs....crackpots......hypocrites......and front men & women for hidden money interests. Yawn.....
